Why a box
App limits ask for willpower. The box doesn't.
Apps ask you to say no, over and over. The box asks only once.
Out of reach until the timer ends
No screen, no alerts, no skip button. Two emergency unlocks, just in case.

The details
The little things, done right.
Sizing
Will my phone fit?
- Fits most phones, including big models like iPhone Pro Max and Galaxy Ultra.
- Slim cases are usually fine. Very bulky cases may need to come off.
Can I still get calls while it's locked?
Yes. A small window on the back lets you answer or hang up a call. Take out the soft plug and tap the screen.
What if there's an emergency?
Hold the big button for 10 seconds and the box opens. You get two emergency unlocks for the life of the box, so they're there for real emergencies.
Can I open it early?
Only with an emergency unlock. For 5 seconds after you set the time you can still cancel by pressing any button. After that it stays shut until the timer ends.
Will my phone fit?
Most phones fit without a case. The space inside is 166 × 85.5 × 14 mm. Thick or rugged cases may not fit. See the size guide.
How long does the battery last?
Up to 60 days on standby. It charges fully in about an hour with the included Micro USB cable.
Does it charge my phone?
The included cable charges the box. Charge your phone before you lock it in.
Do I need an app?
No. No app, no account, no Wi-Fi. You set the time with the button on top.
How do I set the time?
Press the round button to add time, then hold it for 2 seconds to lock. A 5-second countdown starts, and pressing any button cancels it. You can set anything from 5 minutes to 12 hours.
What's your return policy?
You have 30 days to try it, even if you've used it. If it's not for you, email us and send it back for a full refund of the product price. Return shipping is on you, unless the box arrived damaged or faulty.
